Hi Dollypolly - you don't eat very much - do you snack between meals? x
WL

 

[Dollypolly]

No @wirralass i don't as a rule and I'm averaging 1,800 to 2,000 cals a day sometimes 2,200 as it's calorie dense foods I eat too. I eat creams and butters and steaks. I don't eat refined c**p As a rule but can slip back but not often these days.
I forgot my water on that one oops I had 3 litres too.
I also have Mochas either in on my machine not very often or out at Costa not very often as I don't spike with them all trial and error along the way isn't it.

 

[Dollypolly]

L bacon 3 rashers and eggs 2 fried in rapeseed oil with a protein roll on butter.

Advice please. My sister's ex-class mate Madeleine, a brave cancer survivor who works in our chemist, says we should change the lancet every single time or it could give a false reading ie if old blood is left on. I've been re-using mine.

[Wirrallass]

Ditto I mean this kindly but you will always come across conflicting advice 🙄 in any walk of life - It's a matter for you to decide what you want to do regardless. I've re-used lancets a few times before using a new one - but I wipe the sharp clean after each use. I started doing this a while back when I was running very low on lancets. My bgls aren't affected & neither has it caused infections in my fingers from finger prick testing with a used lancet. You have to decide what's best for you hun. Take care x

[Kaylz]

@Ditto I change lancet every test but it's different for me as the pricker I have has a drum with 6 needles inside, I have on very few occasions re used though as was out and hypo'd and didn't have a spare drum in my kit 😱🙄

Ditto well done on your measurements

Thank you. I only measure my tum as for the last two years it has been rigid and distended, I'm thinking liver or heart agh. I'm avid to get it down or at least for it to deflate and go soft. I was used to a huge tum, always had one but not this giant medicine ball, it's horrendous.
